Hi Sebastian! Are you sure about this? I know that if you use a code with GPL license (or LGPL) you could do all you want, but you can't give to third part for example compile code: you must give them the source. You are not obligate to public to the world the modify you do.
Make the source code public available: you can not distribute compile code Redistribute the source only licensed as GPL or LPGL: if in a my project I use code GPL I must distribute all the project only with GPL license (but I must not distribute it) Bye Roberto 2009/1/8 Sebastian Wagner <[email protected]> > and the more I read about it... actually persony.com is already violating > the LPGL. > The do not only use OpenMeetings as Library, they modified it.
